Dirty Water

written by William Reid
from the Jesus & Mary Chain album Stoned & Dethroned


it's off then it's on
it's on then it's gone
it's high and it's steep
it's wide and it's deep

fuck with me, and i'll fuck with you
isn't that what we're supposed to do
kick me down and i'll kick you too
isn't that what we're supposed to do

i've been swimming in the dirty water
i've been swimming where the fish won't go

it's off then it's on
